MPEG-4 AVC (H.264); 2 minutes to read; In this article. MPEG-4 Advanced Video Coding (AVC), also known as ITU-T H.264, is a standard for video compression that can provide good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than previous standards (for example, half or less the bit rate of MPEG-2, H.263, or MPEG-4). CNET Download provides free downloads for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android devices across all categories of software and apps, including security, utilities, games, video and browsers. From Wikipedia, 'a codec is a device or computer program capable of encoding and/or decoding a digital data stream or signal.' In general, codecs are utilized by multimedia applications to encode or decode audio or video streams. In order to play encoded streams, users must ensure an appropriate codec is. H.264 Video Codec 2525. H.264 is also known as X264. The author of X264 Video Codec is VideoLAN project. It's a freeware application which encoding video streams into the H.264/MPEG AVC format. It's used by VLC media player, Handbrake, ffmpeg, etc. Supported OS: Win 8/Win 7/Vista/XP (both 32-bits and 64-bits) Download H.264 codec.

What is H.264/AVC

H.264/Advanced Video Coding (AVC) is an industry standard for video compression. The H.264 standard is also known as MPEG-4 Part 10 and is a successor to earlier standards such as MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. An ITU standard for compressing video based on MPEG-4 that is popular, especially for high-definition video. AVC stands for Advanced Video Coding. Actually its identical to H.264 so you can find it as H.264, H.264/AVC, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC or MPEG-4 Part 10 (it can be twice as efficient as MPEG-4 Part 2).

Taking advantage of today's high-speed chips, H.264 delivers MPEG-4 quality with a frame size up to four times greater. It can also provide MPEG-2 quality at a reduced data rate, requiring as little as one third the original bandwidths. You can think it as the 'successor' of the existing formats (MPEG-2, DivX, XviD etc) as it aims in offering similar video quality in half the size of the formats mentioned before (this reduction enables burning one HD movie onto a conventional DVD).

How to use

  1. Select one Video Source
    Click 'Open' button to select one source video file, H.264 Encoder support almost existing video formats, include: MPEG-2, DivX, XviD etc (you can find more supported formats on Open Dialog).
  2. Input the Output File
    Click 'Browse' to browse and set one output file name. The default file extension is '.mp4', but you can use other file extension (like '.avi').

Encoding Setting Guidelines

Program support encoding settings include:
  • Full High Definition (1920 x 1080)
  • Commonly Used High Definition (1280 x 720)
  • Standard Definition (640 x 480)
  • Internet-size Content (320 x 240)
  • 3G Content (176 x 144, the default)
  • High Quality (Same Size with Source)
  • Normal Quality (Same Size with Source)
  • Fast Speed (Same Size with Source)
For H.264, here are some general guidelines:
  • For a frame size of 1920 x 1080 (full high definition), choose a data rate of 7,000-8,000 Kbps.
  • For a frame size of 1280 x 720 (commonly-used high definition), choose a data rate of 5,000-6,000 Kbps.
  • For a frame size of 640 x 480 (standard definition), choose a data rate of 1,000-2,000 Kbps.
  • For a frame size of 320 x 240 (Internet-size content), choose a data rate of 300-500 Kbps.
  • For a frame size of 176 x 144 (3G), choose a data rate of 50-60 Kbps for 10-15 fps content, or up to 150-200 Kbps for 24-30 fps content.
